"Everywhere cordons, it is unrealistic to escape." How they arrange raids on mobilized
This week, the police of several Russian cities held raids to detain young people to present to them. The most massive "mobilization raids" were in Moscow - dozens of people, starting on October 12, were taken to mobilization points, to the Mosquy Molodezhny cinema and the drama theater Roman Viktyuk. One of the detainees told the editorial office of the North. Reali on how the detention took place and how he managed to refuse to sign the summons without consequences. The instructions of the volunteers of the anti-war movement “Go Forest”, created by Grigory Sverdlin, ex-director of the overnight stay, and the project for helping homeless in St. Petersburg, helped.
According to the detainee, the police came to the hostel in the east of Moscow at about 4 a.m. and began to detain those living there, including watchtte workers. They didn’t explain anything to the detainees, they took their passports and took them to the draft points to the theater and to the cinema, where they held for several hours.
Denis was also detained, but he managed to free himself by the evening of October 12th. He believes that the volunteers helped him “go by the forest”, who, in response to his request to the telegram channel of the project, managed to throw instructions to the messenger how to conduct himself and what to answer the military questions.
“The best news of this filthy day. Just“ go with the forest ”pulled out one person from the prefabricated point,” Sverdlin wrote on the project Instagram .
From this day, hundreds of appeals have come to volunteers every day with a request for helping.
- raids in Moscow. They grab people on the street and try to mobilize. We are now writing a person directly from the "collection point". The building of the drama theater (Stromynka 6). Nobody is released, inside about 100 people. Each is given out numbers, a military commissariat, doctors for examination, they already give a form there. At the entrances and exits, the police do not let anyone out. They draw up right there, they write that they are going to send it from there immediately (we can’t check this yet). There is also information that they are coming to take people on hostels, ”the volunteers said,“ go with the forest ”.
- I work as a driver. Category "A", 35 years old, was a member of the hostilities. At 7 am in hostel he was going to work. Employees of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the military registration and enlistment office entered the collection for three minutes, took the passport, blocked the entrances and exits, brought them out and led to the bus. In total, about 15 people were taken - all who were in the hostel, ”says Denis. - They said that since the age is suitable, you need to go to the military registration and enlistment office, "verify the notes." He did not bother, gave the passport - it was my mistake! It could be said that I left at work. But I, not suspecting anything, just gave the police officer in my hands.
Denis was taken to the Viktyuk theater for "a collection point of persons who will be attracted to mobilization." Everywhere there were cordons: traffic police, Rosgvard. So it was unrealistic to escape. They made a corridor, spent it on it, they gave everyone a number and ordered to wait. At this time, Denis was able to write to "go forest."
“I received instructions on how to behave, what not to sign - in general, there was already an algorithm of action,” he continues. - So I did not force the events, calmly tried to find out information about the people who asked questions, at least to find out their status. But only one employee was introduced to me. The rest ignored me.
In general, I did not sign anything, refused-they were angry due to the fact that they allegedly could not understand why I did not want to sign the contract.
Each question was associated with a military ID - after a passport for them it was the most important document. Even more important. After all, the category of health, VUS ( military specialty.-SR ), position-all this there. Well, I honestly said that I was a shooter, the rank of private, served 4 years. But I did not give a military ID - said that I left in the car at work, there is a closed territory. I was offered to go in their car with an employee and pick up. I don’t know how I escaped this trip - I just said that I am not interested and I won’t go anywhere. Then they lagged behind.
There was an idea to escape at all: if I go with a volunteer, then, for example, you can tear yourself into the subway. While waiting in this line, he wrote a statement in free form, by hand - in the name of a military commissar, Sobyanin and Minister of Defense. And in the name of the Commissioner for Human Rights in Moscow. He wrote that I refuse to mobilize in accordance with Article 59 of the Constitution of the Russian Federation, which gives me the right to alternative service. They said that they would consider and call.
There are two stages: first the primary collection of information, then they are invited to another conversation. They ask why you don’t want to sign a contract, mobilization in the country ... They process people very aggressively. At first, they were not threatened, then they began to bring all articles from the Criminal Code - that for this one can "sit down for ten years." Type was not threatened, but "information was brought." I reacted calmly, without emotion, by that time I was already instructed in "go forest." So he said: "Yes, thanks. Let the commission decide everything further - she makes decisions."
There was a couple of doctors there - I won’t lie, I didn’t go through a physical examination, I just saw people in white robes. Others said the others that they measured the pressure, conducted an external inspection, teeth ... I did not pass this inspection, I was immediately called to the commission. The colonel sat, dryly asked: "Why refuse?" I replied that I have beliefs and that religion does not allow me to take part in the fratricidal war and I do not want to do all these things. "I'm fed up with my throat, leave me alone." After that, he returned my passport to me, said that now they would call the operational group and prosecutors, after which "my fate will decide." But for some reason they did not appear, although I saw them in the building. They brought me out of the office, they ordered me to wait: I sat, then the man came out. He brought me out and said: "All, deal with your questions." I went out, gave the number that I was given and released, ”says Denis.
Another interlocutor of the North. Realia named Sergey did not receive such an instruction and, despite his reluctance to participate in the war, he was given an order "On the Calling for Mobilization".
-I am 37 years old, there is no military experience, I have not opened a military man for a hundred years and I do not remember my military accounting specialty. At 4 in the morning, police officers came to our hostel, demanded to present documents and selected them. Passports that is, ”says Sergey. -Under the escort of these police officers, the police held on buses and, without explaining anything, took them to some kind of cinema on Lublin, supposedly a collection of mobilization. There we were all distributed “mobilization prescriptions”, some were dressed in uniforms right there and fired somewhere, they said that they were “taking Patriot” to the Park, but I don’t know where they were actually taken. I refused to sign this order, but they kept us for several hours, crushed us, in general, I signed it only to release that I would find my military man and come to the collection point, In the order, mobilization in Naro-Fominsk is mentioned, to some kind of combined-arms Academy of the Ground Forces.
In the anti -mobilization movement "go by forest" on the fifth day of work - October 8 - the first and last time they calculated how many people asked for help and how many of them they received a consultation - there is no time.
“The initiative arose very quickly, just a couple of days after the start of mobilization,” says Ivan Chuvilyaev from “Go Forest”. - On September 30, the team was already in full force, including volunteers (although they are still not enough for all requests and the set continues). The main difficulties so far are in a shortage of workers - we are looking for those who have already left the country and are ready to volunteer. Of course, everyone works for free, we do not take money for consultations. Although clones-mesters have already appeared, they ask for money under our sign for the promise of "smear", be vigilant: wherever the money is scammers!
The need to recruit volunteers is exclusively from those who have already left Russia, Chuvilyaev explains very simply - basic principles of security.
- The first -line volunteer, that is, the one who works directly with appeals, is a very big responsibility. He has information about those who have addressed, including confidential. Here we can’t take risks and therefore we take only those who certainly do not find themselves in the hands of special services or police, that is, only those who are not in Russia. And we take volunteers only after careful selection, ”says Chuvilyaev.
Raids in St. Petersburg
